Went and weighed my truck today since it's never been done. I figured it was on the heavy side. Weight was taken without me in it the truck and I'm 180lbs.

So I have a tonneau cover, full stereo system, bed liner, ect. I mean there is nothing light about the truck but holy ****. 4800lbs with me in it is pretty excessive.

If I could dedicate it as a track truck, I could shave everything off the truck. But I love driving it every day and Las Vegas Motor Speedway doesn't have many track days open to the public.

Last time i weighed mine it came in at 4400-4500, somewhere around there... For some reason i think the 2003+s weigh a few hundred more.... I dunno why, but i think i remember reading that somewhere...

But your 1000hp+. So weight really doesn't matter.
